Oh yeah! I am so ready to listen to the Prophet speak this weekend!! And I will hopefully be able to watch it in english... :) Which is even better!!!
Oh my New companion. She is AWESOME!! She sometimes uses word that I don't understand, but for the most part, I understand her really well.
One of the first things she asked was if I was the comp with more time in the mission... :) Only because I am tall... Side note: People always say that I am 25-27 years old because of how tall I am... Anyway. This week has been good. We started working for day one, and our lessons were amazing this week...
Bad news: Friday we lost our cell phone in a motor taxi, and we wont get a new one for 3-4 weeks... Its great! Saturday: My zone leaders called and told our landlord that we were moving on the 1st of April. The bad part about that is that I have to pack all my things up again, after only one month of living there. The other bad part; they didn't know that we were moving at all. And when we sat down to talk with them, the grandma that owns the place made me cry... but her daughter came and helped the situation. Ah! If I could tell you the whole story about who said what and all the jazz, you would cry too.... But in a year ask me and I will tell you all about it. AH! It was terrible. Monday: This morning My LDS Mail wasn't working, and my leaders said that we could email our families this week.. But here I am, a little later in the day, emailing you! So this is a grand blessing.
This week is going to be awesome. I'm moving into a little bit smaller room, on wed. And then we have general conference this weekend. :) Eat easter candy for me... yeah! :)
I cant believe how fast these weeks are getting. Next Monday I will complete 6 months in the mission. Only one YEAR more! Its crazy to think about. At christmas time I will really only have 3 months left because I come home after general conference. AHHH!!! Christmas is really life 8 months away, but it's really close!!! :) Ah! I just cant wrap my head around it.
Fun Health facts: I have a throat infection and now taking pills for a week to clear it out of my system. And I rolled my ankle at church yesterday--BUT cool story. Yeah. So I rolled my ankle and yeah it hurt. It popped really well. And because we didn't have a cell phone I couldn't call the Zone Leaders to tell them that I was staying in for the day. So I couldn't call, so we went out to the lessons we had. Literally hours later, the swelling and the pain were a minimum... And this morning, its a little swollen, and its doesn't even hurt. MIRACLE because I went out and did the Lords work. Its was amazing!!! What a blessing and a cool experience that I had.
The Women's conference was this Saturday, for those of you that forgot you can see it on the internet.:) But I was really surprised on the focus. The FAMILY. It honestly makes me really nervous for the future!!! Ah! But this Sat. I was able to think about my family. And the blessing all my siblings and in laws are and the blessing that that I have received! I am truly blessed to have my family. I thank Heavenly Father for you guys everyday! And I also ask that he watch over you! :)
This next week is going to be awesome!!!! Take notes and follow the counsel of the Prophet and the apostles(Spelling).
My new companion is amazing and is a power house. Already I can see a difference in our ward here. :) Everyday, she says that theres a lot of work to do. One time she expressed that if we don't get it down, she could see the area being closed and Elders coming in.... We both don't want that to happen. Now, all we have to do is work hard and follow what the Lord wants us to do! :)
I love my life right now. The heat, the Spanish, the food isn't important because I am a Missionary. I am a representative of Jesus Christ. His name is on my plaque. When I do what He wants, I am blessed. I have written in my planner, ¿Mano de Dios? Which means hand of God? Because I want to be looking for the hand of God in my life Every day! He is there every day, I know He is. I just have to look for it!!! :)
The world is amazing, but I am grateful for the opportunity I have to be with my family for eternity. That One day I will be PERFECT! And that one day, I will live in the presence of God, if I do my part in this life, and the time that I have in this world. :)
The church is True. Thomas S. Monson is our latter-day Prophet. The Book Of Mormon is true, and that Jesus Christ lives! He loves me, and PERSONALLY knows me.
Love you all. Hope all is well. I pray for you all the time!
